Final push:

7/20/2015

I've been asked to do a final session (there seems to have been a number of 'finals on this bit of work!) tomorrow for the 70+ Charity leaders in the Marches region. It's a chance for providers to meet with the emerging lead organisations who will soon be bidding to the Lottery to be the key agencies to hold the contracts. If not of this makes sense, see some of the posts below.
Well, at the final session tomorrow we have no less than 90 Charities represented!! We have got a fascinating session set up for the afternoon. 

What a fun way to go out on this contract!! 

An end to another beginning:

7/2/2015

 
As someone who has been aware of the Mindgap journey/supported me on it, I thought I would just quickly update you on where I'm at with work and the transition from WM Housing (3 months ago now!) to Mindgap and beyond. It's been an incredible journey over the last 3 months - stepping out from a well paid/solid job into....well little guaranteed really! 

Through Mindgap, I was very 'blessed' (the only word that fits really) to immediately secure a big contact 2 weeks after I left WM Housing. This work saw me delivering training in the Marches region to about 70 Charity leaders. Dream job! That contract paid for my 1st 2 months of work. Brilliant!

Now for the news.......As part of prepping for my Mindgap role, I undertook a qualification at Herefordshire and Worcestershire Group training and, on the course, was made aware of a job there. The job was leading their Workforce Development Department: Management and leadership training and loads more. It's the commercial bit of the organisation so they want the post to grow it big to generate income for the Charity.​

Well, I went for the job and yesterday was told I was successful!!. Start in August.

I was/am loving the freedom of the Mindgap business but when this offer came in with salary, car and all - it was hard not to look at it . The more I have prepared for the role the more I am so excited about it. All I wanted to do in Mindgap but lots more - and local!

Mindgap still exists (in concept) and I would love to talk to you about what I could do for you - as long as it doesn't clash with the new role. All I know is I have had the privilege of transitioning out of one career/sector and now into one that I have dreamed of for some time: Training and leadership and management development. Great!

So that's all I know for now. Thank you so much for your support over the last few months. It's meant a lot. 

Regards

Dave
